    This game was bad. Worse than playing an original Nintendo game. Really no improvement. Very big disappointment.

  1. The most beautifully balanced, well-crafted 2D beat-‘em-up to grace God’s fair Earth.

    I love the color edit and backgrounds, and the character list can't be beat. [Dec 2001, p.95]

    A very fine 2D fighter...The only disadvantage to its arrival on PS2 is the inevitable difficulty caused by the PS2 controller, and with luck that will be remedied by a decent fighting solution soon.
